I'm with Barret on the victory issue. As to the raid, I can't explain why, just call it my opinion, or whatever, but I do think that Bishop did attack an airfield. AND I think that HE saw 3 enemy planes go down.

I also think that by whatever means, I believe his claims for 2 June, 1917 were confirmed. At least to the satisfaction of His Majesty and the Imperial General Staff.

Again, this is just my opinion. And since there is no other proof, either way, we'll never really know for sure on that issue.

VBR,
